Adityanath and Maurya were sworn in as UP chief minister and deputy chief minister respectively in March after the BJP won the state polls with a massive majority. They were last week elected unopposed to the state legislative council.

Once their resignations are notified, the Election Commission will announce by-polls to the two Lok Sabha seats.

Recently, Goa chief minister Manohar Parrikar had resigned as member of the Rajya Sabha from UP after he won the Panaji assembly by-poll.

He had resigned from the union cabinet in March to take over as the chief minister of Goa.
